I resolved it by doing make clean in /usr/src/linux-2.6.5, then make menuconfig, and make && make image modules_install.

I also used the 2.6.4 .config file at ciarnm's site. I do not have the link right off hand, but it can be found if you search "sparc 2.6 kernel" in the forums. He has several configs for different systems that should all work.

I do not really know what changed, but it is no longer giving me that error.
